Nightmare

The three ponies hit town shortly after their swim, and find a resturaunt to have lunch at. Brave gives their orders to the waiter, and proceeds to pay the bill for all three of them.  "You didn't have to do that," says Shy. "Yes I did. It's called being a gentleman," Brave responds with a smile.  Shy blushes, as she'd never seen, let alone met, a stallion who'd do anything like that for a mare before. Fillyshy jumps up with glee, taking her food and finding a table for them to sit at.  Shy takes a moment to look upon the town, noticing a distinct lack of ill-will among the crowd of ponies. She finds Ponyville to be much more acceptable then her former residence, Detrot. Detrot had many problems, including several underground crime syndicates, and the danger of walking around in broad daylight made everything more complicated.  The feelings sweep through her so suddenly that she can't hold them all in, and she starts to weep. She leaps to her feet and runs home, and Fillyshy looks up just in time to see her dash off. "Shy!" both she and Brave call after her. Shy doesn't hear them, so they follow her home.  They reach the house, but find that the door is locked. Fillyshy knocks on the door, and gets no response in return. She flies up to Shy's bedroom window, and sees her crying on her bed. Fillyshy knocks, and Shy sees her and opens the window. As Fillyshy flies in, Shy goes downstairs and lets brave in as well.  Her cheeks still have tear trails on them, and Brave and Fillyshy ask her what the matter is. Shy flops down on her bed, hiding her face in a pillow, and begins sobbing again. Fillyshy sits on the bed and hugs her, motioning for Brave to do the same. Shy slowly gets up, and goes downstairs to get a glass of water.  As she walks back, she drinks her water, thinking to herself. Should she tell them about Detrot? She sighs, and walks back upstairs. Fillyshy gets up and hugs her.  "What's wrong, Shy?" Brave asks, concern in his voice, "Is it us, or did something happen?"   "No, it's not you," Shy says quietly, "Just memories..." "What memories, Shy?" asks Fillyshy. Shy looks at them both, sits down on the bed, and describes the town that she'd come from. She explained that her town was full of contempt, and nopony trusted anyone which made doing anything difficult, unlike Ponyville where everyone made an effort to be friendly to one another.  "Shy, it's ok," Brave says reassuringly, hugging Shy, "If something is bothering you that bad, then you can tell us." Shy smiles, even as the tears trickle down her face. "I'll be alright, Brave. Nopony wanted me around in Detrot. They all thought I was to kind. I'm glad I have you two." Brave looks at Shy in surprise. A pony hating another pony for being kind? Now that was odd. Shy takes a deep breath, and continues describing Detrot.
